Cancelled!!

The phone call came in while I was asleep and I am thankful for that. The message was that my flight was cancelled. As a frequent flyer, that has happened in the past and I know the airline usually arranges a seat on the next available flight. However, on this day, this flight was for me to be able to spend most of the day with my daughter, who I had not seen since December.

About a month ago when I scheduled on site consulting with a client in Chicago, I realized I would have an opportunity to visit my daughter in route to returning to my home. Once those logistics were set, people close to me knew I was excited about being able to spend time with her. The timing seemed perfect because she would have just finished mid-term exams and would be ready to have a nice dinner and a night out with dad.

The cancellation of the flight resulted in me looking at many alternatives and there were a couple that would have meant I would arrive only a few hours later than planned which would have been fine. I was unable to get phone support that helped me, which is another story for my business blog. I even went to the airport for help and was not successful. Finally I realized that if the next flight out did fly I would arrive by mid evening which would leave a very short time for a visit.

My daughter began suggesting we plan on another weekend and that began to make the most sense. Ultimately I was able to get a flight back to my home city Tampa, Florida.

I give you that background so you can appreciate that like anyone else I experienced a number of emotions with this situation. As I navigated through them, my dominant thought was “do the best you can and all will work out in perfect order.”

In the past (prior to 2005) I would have carried this event around and associated emotions of anger, resentment and more for quite some time. I don’t feel good about what happened. I have released this event and I am now focusing on when we can schedule another visit. This time it will be even longer than originally planned this time. I know that my relationship with her is strong and I have been able to help her with her mindset with different professional and personal experiences.

I am grateful for being experienced with the Laws of The Universe which help me in circumstances that go opposite of what I prefer. I encourage you to devote time everyday to core Laws that will guide you in all circumstances experienced.

I am also especially grateful today to Preston Ely for bringing this video to my attention that I now share with you.
